It was on the knuckle and I am pretty sure it went to the bone and I am worried I actually nicked the bone, or maybe tendon.

The cut itself healed great as I kept it clean and bandaged, but the knuckle is still swollen and bruised and I cannot grip with that hand properly, even pushing thjrough the pain to try to grip I cannot do so as well as I should.

I remember. If you can grab things at all, then you haven't exactly sliced through the tendon. But maybe you've hit it a little.

I've only ever been nauseous on long plane and car rides. The last time I was on a plane, I took a couple of those motion sickness pills... I didn't know that was a fancy name for sleeping pills though. I had a very violent nap. I'm told that I was shaken awake several times and every time I would literally pass out again in mid-word of mid-sentence. And apparently, at one point my upper body was hanging out in the aisle and someone smashed into me with the food cart. I have no memory of that.

Anyway, those were some really good pills and I wish I had some so I could give you half, Jaz.

dramamine pills def knock me out but I think this is something worse. I think I may have an infection or something. Like right now I'm sweating but I can't tell if it's from the heat inside or if I have a fever :/ I defintely need to go to the health center tomorrow. I'm thinking I may have got heat stroke though. I feel like I don't have time to worry about this but I know I need to do something about it.

Still having been feeling 100% myself. Been drinking water, sleeping as much as possible. Apparently the whole bridal party has been feeling like this :/ I'm trying to get everything situated today since I'll be spending the night and tomorrow is the wedding!

Woke up this morning with stomach pains. Tried to eat, ended up puking it back up. Guts also not feeling great. Went back to bed for a bit after the girl left. Woke up feeling better, get up, went upstairs to the bathroom, as I was in there I became VERY lightheaded and dizzy and I got very hot and started sweating a lot. A wave of nausea hit me, but no vomiting. Had to crawl to the water room (br and sinks are separate), and could barely stand. Had to make my way back downstairs, but nearly fell down them. I had to call for my roommate in case the symptoms didn't go away when I laid down, but they did. So I'm fine laying down and not really in much pain, but I haven't tried to get up again.

I had a banana and some crackers earlier, slept, and had another vertigo attack just now when I woke up. I'll hope it's a result of all this poor eating I've been doing and hope it's not an illness. Low Blood sugar can be fixed. It's so funny, because I just went out yesterday to be fruits and start eating healthier. Honestly, I don't think it's low blood sugar, knowing my diet, but then again, I don't know how that works exactly, so I'll take your word for it. It strikes me as weird that I'd be vomiting and have stomach pain with low blood sugar.

If you've been eating crappy things lately, fast food, too many sweets, too little food, odds are your body is having a reaction to that kind of diet. You don't have to be sick to have low blood sugar. But the nausea and the vertigo are what I feel when my blood sugar is low. Low blood sugar makes your blood pressure spike and then go down below the normal rate and that's why you feel vertigo. I can't stand when I have low blood sugar and I feel faint. If I lie down for 10 minutes, it gets better.

But yeah, go for healthy eating anyway, there's nothing wrong with that. Just make sure you don't only eat healthy food, but you also eat regularly. That's why I got my hypoglycemia diagnosis in the first place - months upon months of eating crap and eating once a day (sweets, fast food, pastries etc).

That sounds exactly like what's happened. You've probably nailed it on the head. I've been eating poorly, at strange hours, with alcohol. And perhaps yesterday I had too much natural sugar or something, after months of shit, and my body is reacting to it strongly now.

Oh it goes away, just eat fruit and cheese, even bread, today. Don't go for watermelon or bananas though, they're too sweet. Apricots or apples are best right now. And obviously make sure you eat more regularly from now on. It's not fun if it becomes a habit, trust me.

Oh, I had 2 bananas today... Oops! And an apple and a kinder. I want to go get food, but I'm afraid of even trying to go out. If a slow walk up some stairs destroys me, I'm afraid of what a walk to the store will do. May ask a friend to get me some.

I honestly think it's a combination of things. Perhaps the poor eating, the bad wine (because it was nasty), the heat, maybe a general illness. It's hard to say. I'm okay for the most part, it's just the climbing of the stairs that gets me. I start to sweat really bad when it happens. Heat flushes my body and I sweat really quickly and badly

As I said to my friend, my real concern is having my mind subconsciously associate sex with illness. That happens to people when they get food poisoning and then they never want to eat that one thing again. I feel so yuck that most things gross me out to think about at this point, so I'm like struggling not to think of sex as nasty and illness inducing.

Haha

I think if you're aware that you might associate something with something you probably won't. Serial killers and weird fetish people associate stuff with stuff, don't do that. Apparently when Dennis Nilsen came home one day his mum said, "Do you want to see your grandfather?" and he was like, "Hell yeah!" but he ran into the kitchen and his grandfather was laid out dead and stiff and no one even warned him. So after that he associated love with death and kept corpses under his floorboards to dress up and talk to after his work at the job centre.
